Abstract

We propose a Proactive Approach for Detecting Network Attachment (DNA). In the approach, the mobile node caches information about adjacent access points and access routers using the Candidate Access Router Protocol and uses the cached information to check the new subnet after the mobile node establishes a new air link. This enables the mobile node to determine immediately after the new link setup whether the mobile node needs to proceed further for new IP configuration for the link.
